Genting SkyWorlds Hotel
(previously known as Theme Park Hotel)
Theme Park Hotel is a 500 rooms boutique hotel best cater for couples, groups, and families. There are four different rooms and it can accommodate from two to six people.
The fun part is that everyone can party together in one room the whole night, the bad part is it has only one washroom which everyone has to take their turn to use. Theme Park Hotel is closer to the outdoor theme park, 20th Century Fox World but it is still not ready yet.

The hotel is located near Arean of Stars where the concert is held and it is nearer to the outdoor theme park.
Resort Hotel (4-star)
Resort Hotel has 834 rooms with three different types of rooms to choose from. The room is much bigger than the room in First World Hotel so it is my choice of hotel every time I visit Genting Malaysia. It might be located a bit farther from SkyAveune and other eatery but I don’t mind the distance.
Once I reached the Resort Hotel at 6.30 am, I will do an early check-in and leave my luggage at the luggage storage area. Then I will go for my breakfast and explore the area. When the room is ready, they will give me an SMS and I will go to the hotel auto check-in kiosk to get my room cards.

The bus interchange is located at the basement of the Resort Hotel. Normally after check-out at 12 pm, I will stay at the lobby Coffee Bean for a drink until 1.30 pm before head down to the basement to wait for the bus to arrive at 2 pm.
Genting Grand (5-star)
Genting Grand has 427 rooms and suites for you to choose from. Compare to other hotels, the rooms are bigger, have free WiFi and bathtub. At the lobby just beside the life, you can indulge and pamper yourself at that M spa Hidden from view there is a large lounge area where you can relax and unwind with your friends.
I have stayed in this hotel for two times but I don’t think it suite me at all. It has a bathtub and a standing shower but during the stay, I only used the bathtub once. Compare my usage and the value I paid for is totally not worth it unless I have a free room stay I will not pay for it. (Yes, you can get a free room. I will show you how in the later post)

One of the Casinos is located at level two of the building and it is convenient to and fro. The building also has quite a lot eatery and snack bars such as Coffee Terrace, Good Friends Restaurant, and Genting Palace just to list a few.
Highlands Hotel (5-star)
(previously known as Maxims)
Built for pleasure and comfort, the Highlands Hotel offers sophisticated suites and rooms that are a class above.
I have stayed in this Maxims for two times and would prefer this to Genting Grand. The room size is similar to Genting Grand just that it doesn’t have a bathtub (which I don’t need it). The disadvantage is, it is located at the far end of Genting Grand the advantage is there is another escalator up to the casino and free WiFi.
